The little gingerbread house ...

The little gingerbread house ...

A Poem by alternative_be
"

We're moving house ... We've got the distinct feeling our little house resents us leaving ...

"

 

The little gingerbread house
 
The little gingerbread house
Acting up like only a jealous spouse
Suddenly has the power
Leaving us in a glass shower.
 
No, it does not like
It gets grumpy in fact
The way it’s owners act
Anger is not enough
 
The door played up as a downright fury
Acting on speed
Being a fan of the late Ian Dury
Concocting up some deed
 
Otherwise the lady and her man
Will never know
The house will miss them
Dearly
